Does this mean fewer episodes of the already-too-infrequent 1WineDude TV?

The short answer is, “yeah, sort of.”

BUT… having said that… the “sort of” part probably needs a bit of embellishment…

Here’s the low-down:

I have a very interesting (in both the British and American senses of the word) project in the works that will be released as a video series soon(ish), a ton of potential product reviews that I want to release via video, and a sh*tload of travel in the first half of 2012 (the Loire, Napa, Sonoma, Colorado, Australia, Rioja, and working on a few other possibilities) which almost certainly will provide opportunities for great video content.

But it won’t be the primary cornerstone of 1WineDude.com content, either – and as I “go pro” in this biz, more paying opportunities will almost certainly translate in some reduction of content here, unless someone makes human cloning economically viable very quickly, or I open up 1WD to a staff beyond, just, well, little old me.

And while it probably goes without saying, as more paying gigs get my attention I think it’s worth repeating: the content on 1WD is always going to be free.

Thanks, Kris – appreciate the vote of confidence. I have another in the kitty for them on red wine headaches. I find tasting on camera to be not-so-compelling, so the idea is to do more interesting, thought-provoking stuff and riff on current wine world themes. Not that tasting cannot be done well on video, but it’s just not *me*.

Sorry, @Sedimentblog – meant “interesting” in the American (“gee, that's something that sparks my interest”) and British (“well… that's something that I dislike but will call interesting so as not to offend this person too much”) meanings :).

Joe, super happy to have you on board… We love your videos and outlook on wine. We are honored to have you as a contributor on Wines.com. As always we also love reading all your stuff here on 1winedude.com.
